A ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in central Wantage, offered chain-free and ready for immediate occupation or let. The open-plan living area opens via French doors to a private, decked garden — a rare outdoor space for a ground-floor flat — and the property includes an allocated off-street parking space.
The layout is practical: entrance hall with storage, a bright sitting/dining room with patio doors, a fitted kitchen, two bedrooms (master with fitted wardrobes) and a modern bathroom. Double glazing and electric storage heaters provide basic comfort; the interior is presented in neutral tones and will suit buyers wanting a straightforward, low-maintenance home or a buy-to-let investment.
Notable costs and constraints are factual: the property is leasehold with approximately 88 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £1,970 and ground rent of £188 per year. Heating is electric storage heaters rather than gas central heating, and the overall internal footprint is compact (about 560 sq ft) — important for buyers who need generous space.
This apartment works well for first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into Wantage or investors targeting reliable rental demand from families and professionals. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the private garden, parking and convenient town-centre location close to shops, schools and transport links.
